Glasses, Glasses, Glasses

Posted: 05.06.11

It’s that season again. Watery itchy eyes, scratchy throat. Ugh! I hate spring allergies. The first day my eyes starting itching I thought “if I am going to have to wear my glasses all month, then I need some new glasses!” Have you heard of Warby Parker before? I am sure you have, but if you haven’t they are AWESOME! $95 dollars for lenses and frames. You can’t beat that. Plus they have this awesome home try on thing. You get to pick 5 glasses and they send you them to try on for 5 days, best part… FOR FREE. Umm I am hooked. This is not a sponsored post- I just really like Warby Parker (and playing dress up with glasses!)

I decided to try the Tenley, Huxley, Winston, Fillamore, Sinclair

What ones are your favorites???

winston

tenley

huxley

sinclair

fillmore

Want to know which ones are my favorites???? The winner is… Check it out!
Now I just need to go get my eyes check so I have a prescription.

    i like the first two on you.
    oh, and that company also donates glasses to impoverished people for every one you buy. it’s like tom’s shoes.

    I just got a pair of the Sinclairs and am IN LOVE with them, so I might be a little biased, but I think the Sinclairs are super super cute on you!!!

    I just placed an order with them yesterday. Love the Finely on you!

    Just make sure when you get your eyes checked that they measure the distance between your eyes (it’ll be in mm). Most eye prescriptions don’t include that, but WP uses it so your eyes don’t strain as much.

    i love your pics! i just had my 5 pairs and think i’m going with the miles. lately, i feel like a spokesperson for Warby Parker. they are such an amazing company! their business model is so innovative and i love that they donate a pair of glasses for every pair you buy.

    Loving the Fillmores on you. Perfect!

  10. I really love the Winston’s on you but I like them all. Plus, the ones you chose are pretty similar. I should totally try this :) I’ve really been needing some new glasses lately.

    the sinclair are nice. the finley look a little too big for your face, not as flattering as the other options.

  22. Hilary

    05.06.11

    I really love the Winstons! However, they are all very classy and super cute. Any would be cute on you.

  23. Emily

    05.06.11

    LOVE Warby Parker plan on ordering from them very soon, I love the Sinclair best on you, but really they’re all adorable!!

    I vote for Winstons. Have you heard of Zenni Optical? Complete set of glasses (with prescription lenses) for as low as 8.95. No joke. I have about 7 pairs.

  25. You look cute in all of them,but my favorite is SINCLAIRE!

  43. Mary

    I think you look great in the Winston. The at-home tron option is awesome!

  44. I like the Winston pair best, but they all look fabulous on you!

    I did a home try-on but didn’t end up buying. I was wondering about the quality. I wear glasses EVERY day and need them to hold up. I’d love to hear your review after you’ve had them a while!

  46. Oh Winstons hands down at least in my opinion. Wish we had that place but no such luck. Really they ALL look great on you.

    I have spring allergies too that prevent me from wearing contacts. It sucks but after about 2 months of wearing glasses everyday, I like them a whole lot better. It just brings back my 5th grade glasses are for nerds complex . :)
